>>86623156Really for Germany? I thought otherwise. Us French folks really like germans, and our medias talk 24/7 about the "French-German couple", but I though that Germans kinda liked more brits or americans

>>86623375>but I though that Germans kinda liked more brits or americansBrits are seen as some kinda rat people. Something dirty with deformed heads craving the destruction of normal looking people.Americans are just children. Overemotianal and not to be taken serious.

>>86625065German ancestry in the US is wildly exaggerated. There are very likely more British descendents in America, but because their roots go so far back, many of them have just lost track of their lineage. Germans immigrated here more recently relative to the Brits, so a lot of the time you’ll have John Smith marry Jane Weinerstitzel, and Jane knows that one side of her grandparents were German, while John Smith doesn’t have a clue that he’s primarily English, so they just tell the kids they are German.

>>86625811This is true. This actually explains my family history perfectly. One side of the family (thats most likely English) has been in America longer than the other predominately19th century German immigrant family, and of course the older family has a sketchier lineage, so my family just claims we're German.

>>86625811Not exactly. In the 1700's 1/3 of the population spoke German as a first language. English only became the lingua franca, but German was more prevalent than Spanish is today. A lot of people just "forgot" their German ancestry after the anti German sentiment of WWI then even more so in WWII. Look at Trump, before WWII he was Drumpf, that's not just the current year guy meme it was something that was really common in that era.

>>86626094My dad is the same way. He doesn’t know dick about his ancestry other than he’s 1/16th Native American, but his last name is Smith and a common rule of thumb is if you don’t know your ancestry in America, you’re probably mostly British.

There was never any sort of emphasis in America on remembering where you came from if you were a non-Irish Anglo. It was just the norm, and people in America didn’t celebrate being “English” after they literally fought a war to break away from Britain.

>>86626487>A lot of people just "forgot" their German ancestry after the anti German sentiment of WWI then even more so in WWII

The same thing happened after the American Revolution with British ancestry. In 1776 if you went around we wuzing as an Englishman, you’d have been branded as a filthy loyalist. The founding population actively rejected the concept of being British. People in the South literally still check “American” on the census because family record-keeping was so poor and they only ever remember being Americans.

>>86625065>I'm 1/4655278894th GermanIs simply what they identify with, not what they really are.Being German is just more prestigious at times. Make this shit right now and suddenly nobody is German anymore.

This is Shartia. There are no ethnical rules in Shartia. You can be whatever you want.

>>86623844Oh yeah, I'm sure all these countries leaders think about their valuable allies, the Dutch, all the time.What would we do without those strategic reserves of tulips and cheese.Don't get me started on the windmills.A tremendeous force to be reckoned with, hugely important.

>>86627713Scots are special snowflakes just like the Irish. As a Brit, you should already be familiar with that. The only reason they are almost as bad as English and Welsh at remembering their ancestry in America is because they were very welcome to the identity of being “Americans” considering the US was largely founded on the idea of telling the Brits to fuck off.

>>86629619Where the fuck do Germans getting this victim complex that Americans hate them? It is the other way around. Germany literally couldn’t have been more favorably viewed by Americans than it was in the 2000s and early 2010s. It was comfortably the 2nd most popular country in Europe behind the U.K. among Americans until the last few years when Americans started learning that Germans and German media for some reason have an extreme hatred and scorn for Americans.

>>86623375We work together in turning another page, also Emperor Macron.>>86623576Fuck you, everyone was allways afraid or a unified german state. The EU is the obly way this will work out fairly for us. Also it is rich since you were the biggest bully in western europe for centuries.
